I've been in Washington ever since 1981, trying to get out!

Some days you feel like this is really going well. You can tell. Other days, you're just drawing like a farmer and you don't know why.

There were dragons to slay in the old days. Nixon was a good dragon.

The starting point for creativity is silence... the creative soil of silence, where can be found the seed-states of all things.

The money isn't a lure. I've done very well out of this business.

In order to fly, you have to be free.

You dwell in whitened castles with deep and poisoned moats and cannot hear the curses which fill your children's throats.

God's place is the world but the world is not God's place.

God uproots the vine that He Himself has not planted.
